Talk:Strada
From MediaWiki
Okay, I dont' speak Japanese. I'm basing the statement Strarda was destroyed on MK's reactions, and Neal Davidson's tech-spec for Mach Kick, which mentioens the thoroughbred Corps destruction. I'm 90% sure Strarda is dead, but because Neale is... Neal, if anyone knows better, please say so. -Derik 00:05, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
- An machine-translated version of his spec...
- Sub-commander of the wiped-out Thoroughbred unit. Experience on the battlefield being abundant, all intelligence/wisdom is stored.
- The rest of it is about his weapons, so I figure it's irrelevant to this. -- Monzo 03:53, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
- Also, what's the katakana for this guy's name? Is there a shot of it, or is this just going off vocals? "Strarda" sounds... really weird. -- Monzo 03:56, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
- This is what Hydra said when I asked what his name was:
- I really don't remember the circumstances relating to the disbanding of his team, but his commander's name is Strarda, which is some sort of horse-related thing. Might be a breed, I'm not sure.
- In the episode itself, Mach kick calls him what sounds to me like Sto-rada.
- Without knowing what the name is supposed to be a play on (and I don't think it's 'Strider' based on pronunciation, so I'm assuming it's Japanese) I'm inclined to trust Hydra's spelling, as he's generally Anal about such things. -Derik 04:04, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
